Parrotstock

About Me

In September of 1996 in a land far far away there came to be known an event called Parrotstock, and like it's name sake (Woodstock) was held on a farm outside Charlotte NC. There were bands playing all through the weekend, with little respite from the music! Twas a Parrot Head Phlocking like no other. There was much drinking and so much fun was had that it took four full years before those who participated could once again venture forth. In 2001 the banner was once more raised high and over the next few years Parrotstock grew to be a Southeastern Regional Phlocking, held in alternating southeastern host cities each year.
In 2006, the 10th anniversary of this annual fundraising event for Paramedics for Children raised the bar even more expanding from a Southeastern Regional Phlocking, to a music showcase for attendees worldwide. In 2006, Parrotstock raised over $17,000 for Paramedics for Children.
In 2007, the Parrot got loose...it was bigger, it was even better, it WAS Uncaged! We set the bar with nearly $20,000 raised for PfC!! Keep checking back for details regarding ParrotStock 2k8!!!
